CBE software DRM free store

Digital downloads immediately served!

If you are an existing customer, you will be able to download all your games - your customer profile here stays. This change affects only people who want to buy a game in our store after 1.1.2015.

Due to EU VAT legislation valid from 1.1.2015, we are no longer able to sell our games directly to you.

It would require us to keep track of VAT rates and their changes in 28 countries, fill in an incredible amount of paperwork, providing MOSS with quarterly per-country sales reports (or even worse registering with tax offices in every single country which basically forces MOSS usage) and having you to give us much more information about yourself just for the sake of even telling you which price applies to you, which is simply stupid.

As if this was not enough, we would be required to become certified data controllers because we would be forced to archive data about every single purchase for a period of 10 years. We would also have to undergo annual recertification and pay for this "benefit".

Prior to 2015 we simply added our country VAT (which is quite high actually) and were able to decide the price for you.

We don't have a manpower for this and our store would have to undergo serious code changes to comply with these rules.

Not only is this absolutely impossible for a 2-men studio but it also brings down many small shops like ours. In the beginning there was an idea to give you DRM free games with a direct support. This sudden change (which appeared in media at the end of 2014) has much bigger impact than those who came up with it ever even considered.

We value every single person who ever shopped with us and I am currently looking into other non-steam ways how to get our games to you DRM free.
